NMFA helped celebrate ten “Girls Making Change” at the White House. One of these young women is Navy daughter, Emily Austin (far left). She’s the Chief of Staff at Bloom; an organization started by military-connected teens, powered by NMFA and dedicated to empowering teens from military families. We were so happy to be able to support Emily and all these young women at this very special event! #TogetherWereStronger #MilKidsServeToo #Bloom Read more about the event here: https://loom.ly/zkeOr5Q

BREAKING: A provision in the draft 2025 NDAA could make Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) more accessible for military families—but there's a catch, and it's one we cannot support. We teamed up with other Military & Veteran organizations and sent a letter urging Congress to expand ART access for ALL military families, with no strings attached.

Kim is More Than A Spouse—her journey is one of resilience, determination, and inspiration. After giving up a career she loved, she set out to create one that could move with her wherever the military sent her family. Proud of her husband's Army service, and even prouder of carving her own path to success.

Spotted: a Joanne Holbrook Patton Military Spouse Scholarship recipient in the wild! NMFA’s Becca Garrison and Raleigh Smith Duttweiler are headed home after an amazing week at the Military Influencer conference in Atlanta. MIC always brings together the movers and shakers in our community, and this year was no exception. We loved getting to celebrate our longtime friends Corie Weathers, LPC, NCC, BCC Tonya Murphy and Austin Carrigg, hearing from Killer Mike and Jon Stewart, running with wear blue: run to remember and Melynda Weaver, and (best of all) meeting so many scholarship recipients in person! If you’re a military spouse with a great idea or big dreams, we want to help. Apply today: https://lnkd.in/eiHNEeEg
